IMF & CFR bunches are spouting tired old cliche almost nobody believes anymore. It also reflects their hidden fear/anxiety about what is to come. This is like saying that the first class passengers of Titatic saying to one another that everything is fine after it hit a giant iceberg head-on. They think that that will be enough to fool others long enough for them to reach life boat first. There are not enough life boats even for first class passengers after all. And there is definitely no lady/children first.
a couple of corrections:
